See, all of these taller guys are goalies. I always found that position boring growing up. I want the ball at my feet constantly.


Not if you always played for really crap teams. I started playing GK when I was 11 because we were losing 11-0 and the coaches son was the GK and he had bricks for hands. I played and we would still lose, but respectfully, 2-1 or scores similar.

Well I also think on a pure Football related notion if I would have played soccer instead of baseball it would have tremendously helped out my football game.

i wish i had played soccer and basketball instead of baseball growing up so much

5'8 170, was 150 during my playing days.

Played LM and CD mostly, enjoyed defense the most. Only played during high school. Actually had some pretty good teams while I was there even though our high school was a purely football school. We had two players that played at d3 schools in college.

6'6' 195

Played CB most of my life with the occasional switch to a striker. As of now I've been playing each of those ony teams pretty evenly.

6'1" 180

Defensive mid mainly and a little bit of time at right winger.

Then I hurt my back and proceeded to get real fat. Now 6'1" 265

One time I dove for a ball wrong and I scraped a piece of skin off my nuts. That hurt... a lot.

6'4" 225 lbs....I've only ever tried keeper, but I think I want to start trying to play full back to get some cardio. I've got some friends who have been begging me to play pick up ball. I'm definitely going to make them regret that.

5'7 140

Originally right wing. Switched to RB when attacking fullbacks became all the rage.

That's gotta be a typo? I don't know if you can even sustain life with those measureables.
